Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
In the case of a ceramic fracture or cup revision with exchange of the ceramic ball head on a used stem, there is always the danger of another ceramic fracture when using a standard ceramic ball head owing to a possibly damaged stem taper. The purpose of this study was to analyze the results of revision hip arthroplasty using a new ceramic revision ball head. Ninety-one patients, who underwent revision hip arthroplasty using a ceramic revision ball head, were analyzed clinically. The Harris hip score and visual analog scale score increased significantly. There were no further ceramic fractures or noises. Especially, in cases with a damaged taper or ceramic fracture, surgeons should consider using a ceramic revision ball head in combination with a ceramic or a polyethylene insert.
